FIGHT REVIEW
@Finq08 up until that point machida was kicking his ass and it was more of a glancing blow to the rearleft side of the head

Shogun fights and you didn't expect him to win by knockout. Uhm.. I don't think I'll even bother watching the whole video.

@raidersfootball20 why was it a lucky blow? He intended to hit him in the face and he hit him in the face.
If you go make yourself a sandwich and eat it, are you lucky that you are eating? That's bullshit.
